Monero was designed to solve this problem. I hope that something based on those ideas becomes a popular or dominant means of payment in the future.
- fauigerzigerk 9y agoIt's not a technical design problem. Governments will never allow a widely used anonymous digital payment system. There is absolutely not a shred of doubt in my mind about that.
- Zak 9y agoThey'd have a hard time banning it. Bitcoin can already be used anonymously if you're careful and an attempt to ban that in countries that are something resembling democratic would be an uphill battle at a minimum.
- fauigerzigerk 9y agoBitcoin is anything but widely used. Democratic countries tightly regulate everything that is usable for money laundering as soon as it reaches a size that makes it relevant. Bitcoin is insignificant at this point and the push for regulation has already started.
